Wow. Was pricing the new ME888s this past August. Yeah, two months ago. The best I could do then was $180.95 for a 170/80-15.

Today I priced the tire at the
Bike Bandit. $230.95
J&P cycles $181.99
Motorcycle Superstore $180.99
American Motorcycle Tire $164.25
Dennis Kirk $157.98 shipped.
Dennis Kirk got my mula tonight...

Bike Bandit has lost its groove, those greedy beasterds.

And DK basically apologizes for tacking on a $5.00 shipping surcharge to the $152.98 price.

That's funny, I got my best price from J&P when I last bought tires. They were running a sale at the time too though.

Bike Bandit is a well-named seller.

I've had good dealings with Dennis Kirk as well, and if you find a cheaper price anywhere, they will match it.

Just found the ME888 170/80-15 on Motorcycle superstore for 152.28 qualified for free shipping. The other thing I like is that they will drop ship to several shops in our area as "preferred installers" and sometimes you can get a discount with them for installation.

Just and option.
